there are many religions and cultures that are outside of the games timespan this being said they did exist during the timespan but like Zunists, Old Saxons, Romans, Suebi, Yazidis they held no majority provinces
Zunists should still be around in 867, as the Saffarids hadn't yet conquered the Zunbils. Old Saxons, Romans and Suebi are holdovers from CK2, and all three are still used by characters in the history files.
Yazidis are probably the best comparison you made in the list: however, in comparison to the Noahides and Yahwists, Yazidi communities are very large and important even to this day, and one could argue that that Yazidi should be present on the map.
But regardless, what I am saying is that Noahides and Yahwists appear to be rather small Jewish sects that to my knowledge were a small minority even among the Jews themselves, who themselves were a minority. So, I suppose I am asking this: where the Noahides and Yahwists would've been around in during the game's timespan, and what role they played in medieval history? After all, knowing that a small religious sect existed is good and all, but if they were too small to be present as courtiers or a provincial majority anywhere on the map, or that they weren't influential wherever they lived in, is it really worth it including them in the game?
Don't get me wrong: if the Noahides and Yahwists really are period-appropriate, I am not opposed to including them, but if they weren't influential anywhere they were present in, it might be better to focus the developers' resources working on implementing other religions, instead.
